[QUOTE="Fire Sweep Ranch, post: 958499, member: 18809"] Hay is a premium this year for us. We just picked up 13 bales, baled earlier this year, but the netting is torn and it is not to the edge of the round bale. We paid $40 a bale for it, and since we just got it Tuesday I have not tested it yet. But I suspect it will be low, so that is what got me thinking of raising the protein and palatability of it. They reported that the cows eat every scrap of the hay if you poured the liquid feed on it. We just priced it, and it is running at $18.50 per cwt delivered. They recommended pouring 6 gallons per bale, and it is 11 pounds per gallon. So about $15 per bale. That seems kind of pricey for me. Just trying to get through the winter with what we got...
